1	Jonathan	Hi there, I have been using the prayer request function of this website, especially given my dad's aggressive cancer relapse. Since then, he has gone through intensive transplant as treatment and last week his pet scan showed his cancer was in remission. Similarly, I have prayed for my mum's cancer which has stayed stable. And Milo our retriever who I also prayed for has started to improve, Praise God and thank you for all your prayers! Jonathan

5	Annmarie Wright	Shortly before 2012 I painted a picture of Our Lady for Father Rookey, and I was surprised when he called me to thank me for it. My friend Rosa was volunteering with him and his ministry in Chicago, and she gave him my phone number. I was overwhelmed. I didn’t think to ask him for prayers for my spiritual, emotional and physical healing. I was kind of dumbfounded. I would like to ask you to please pray that he will pray for my petitions in those areas. I am so hopeful, and I pray that he will be granted to be among the saints in our church. I believe he’s a very holy man. Thank you so much. Annmarie
6	Steven Groome	I was born with a serious heart condition.There is a hole in my heart and the valves are sending the blood in the opposite direction that they should be . There is also a leak in my heart .When I was a baby Fr.peter Mary Rookey came here to Ireland and my family brought me to see him . He chose me out of a crowd of hundreds and prayed over me .I was on a lot of different medications and after i saw fr.peter Mary Rookey that day I didn't need the medications and every appointment I have went to since doctors always assume I had a correction but I had no operation . They look for scars every time from an operation but I don't have any ! Fr Rookey saved my life and I will be forever grateful.My life expectancy wasn't great as a baby but I am alive and well at 29 years old thank God . On my hospital records it says I had a correction but I never had surgery in my life and have no scars on my body yet my heart was corrected .My hospital records are there to prove all this .There is no other explanation for my cure . Fr . Rookey is a saint and deserves to be known as one on earth . Yours sincerely Steven Groome

10	Michael	Over the past year since 2022 I first heard of Fr through OSMM and was fascinated by the amount of miracles that happened during his time as a priest and here on earth, yesterday I was told by my fiancé that her friend was 25 weeks pregnant and her baby was close to not making it, turns out last night or this morning the baby miraculously survived, I prayed for both the Mother and the baby with the intercession of Fr. Karlene Marie Faye 1 pound 8 oz 12 inches long
11	Karie Kinzler	I had a tubal ligation after my twins were born back in 1993. Our daughters were are 4th and 5th children. I was only 31 years old. By 1998, through the grace of God, I realized my sin of sterilization. I was working in a Catholic bookstore at the time and was trying to figure out what to do...it seemed no one could help me.. One day a woman came into the bookstore with a grocery bag of Catholic b9oks that she had read and wanted to pass on for others to read. I told her that I would take them and find a home for them. When I looked into the bag, there was a picture of a priest smiling on the cover of a book. It was Father Rookey!! I was immediately drawn to his warm smile, and picked it right up to look at and to see who this was. I can't remember the title of the book, but I read the whole book within a few days. The book talked about his healings and miracles of healings. As Divine Providence would have it, in the book there was his card with his picture on it and the Miracle Prayer on back. There was an address on back of card: The International Compassion Ministry in Olympia Fields, IL. I immediately wrote him a letter telling him about my remorse of my sterilization and how I wanted to reverse it. I did not know if he was even alive, but I wrote the letter and sent it off. Within a few weeks, I received a letter from him!! I couldn't believe it!! He wrote me back. In His letter he reminded me of God's love and forgiveness. He gave me hope. I did have reversal in 2003.

13	Mark Daley	My son is in hospital in he appeared in a dream with me last night I was suppose to have clubbed hands and feet my mother prayed with him every night Said rosary over my son last night and he appeared in dream saying your mother prayed with me now you can to.
14	Joy Swanson	Several years ago I went to a healing mass with my husband, elderly mother and her friend. Fr. Rookey prayed over my mother and I and we were slain in the spirit. I felt such peace and love and realized the tears were streaming down my face as I walked back to our pew. When we left the church it was extremely cold walking back to our car as it was winter but we could all smell the the scent of roses. I look back now and realize that my faith has grown stronger and I feel that I see the blessings and miracles in my life much clearer. ❤️
15	Mike Bohnert	He would say that sometimes the Lord would send the smell of roses through the church and then say let’s see if it happens tonight…..then there would be people reacting as the smell of roses travelled through the church as if in streams
16	Todd R Kerkhoven	Back in Roughly 2010 I had a severe pinch nerve in my neck. The doctors said that they were gonna have to do Surgery. I was given all the Pre Operation test. I had to wait for the doctor to go on a 2 week honeymoon And meet up with him before before the surgery. My cousin Linda Kerkhoven Of Davenport Iowa.Knowing how much pain it was in Said why don't you go visit father rookie. I live in Homewood Illinois and he was in Olimpia fields Il. I made an appointment and I want to see him. We ssid the divine chaplet And he blessed me. 2 weeks later I met up with the doctor. I walked in the room shook his hand squeezed it so hard he told me to stop. I couldn't do that before. The surgery was canceled. By the grace of God I was healed Through father Rookie. I am a carpenter and I would go see him when work was slow and he would pray with me to find work and it always came through. He was a great man doing Gods work. I miss him Thank you Father Rookie for your help though the Grace of God.
17	Mary Joyce	Approximately Twenty Eight years ago Fr Rookey came to Oxford My sister's son wa about year and half or Two years. The church was packed,my sister was middle way in the church. My sister's little boy was born with alot of medical problems he's got special needs He started to cry my poor sister done her best to console him but to no avail She decided to go out of the church so she wouldn't be disturbing anyone. As she was about to stand up,she heard Fr Rookey tell everyone to shush. My sister thought,he was going to tell her, please keep the child quiet or leave the church. His next words were amazing. He told everyone shush, listen to the crys of an Angel. Of course everyone did. Fr Rookey had not met my sister or her little son at that time. He did not know he had special needs. My sister's little boy eventually stopped crying. It was eventually our turn to go up and get a blessing from fr Rookey. And he was able to tell my sister all about her son..she had not seen or spoken to him before that. It was absolutely amazing. That little boy will be 30 years old on the 17 th September 2022. He is still an Angel from god. The doctor's asked my sister to abort him. When he was born they said he wouldn't live,he'd die when he was about one year old. When he passed that they said he may make it to 5 years As I said he will soon be thirty Please pray for him and my sister She is going through a very hard time at the moment in her marriage Please pray for her and her familyThank You

21	Colleen Seiter	I had the honor and privilege to volunteer as a call screener and if Father was there he always took the call. We would write down the name, location and intention so Father could take more calls. If there was a break from the calls he would be reading his Bible. He is the most Holy human being I have ever met.

23	Morgan MC Hugh	Hi my name is Morgan MC Hugh from Ireland. I was taken to see Fr. Rookey at Mel's cathedral Longford as a child about 7 / 8 years old. I suffered from very bad sinus head pain., I had to stay in a dark room and in bed for days. Until I was touched by Fr. Rookey, and to this day I have never suffered from it since. And I smoke which is not good for the sinus. I am 50 now. I can say it was a miracle from God through Fr. Rookey. God bless him.
24	Dr. Matt Hammett	I knew Fr. Rookey from Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica early 90’s. I use to smell roses around him, happened multiple times. I asked him what it meant, he replied in a letter I still have, “ it’s a true manifestation of Our Lady, a blessing from heaven.” He supported me in prayer over phone many times, often I’d smell roses during these encounters and experience great peace and spiritual healing with him. It led to my conversion to the Catholic Faith and to study healing. I have been a practicing devout Catholic and a chiropractor with four kids!
25	Dianne Resciniti	This year my right knee became more painful upon any contact with any surface, including the padded kneeler at church. I did not know why or what set off this condition. I googled the symptoms and everything seemed to indicate I suffered from bursitis. I'm not athletic, I don't over use it in anytime or work routine and I didn't think I strained it, so I chalked it up to 'old' age. Nonetheless, by the middle of March, it became painful to take a short drive to do errands. By the end of March, I was in pain doing nothing - just at rest. I was to the point of needing medication to relieve the pain. On Sunday, April 2, after returning from Latin Mass, I was writing a note to someone at my desk, where I have Father Rookey's prayer card with his first class relic, along with various pictures of Jesus and the Virgin Mary. I took the card and put it to my knee and said, Father Rookey, could you please heal my knee in Jesus name and make this pain go away. Within 10 minutes the pain was gone, and it has not returned, whether I am genuflecting, kneeling or on my knees cleaning my house or playing with my cat Cookie. Father Rookey's intercession through the power of Jesus Christ has taken the pain away and is healing or has healed the bursitis. AMEN! This is a miracle.
26	Patricia O'Campo	Patricia O'Campo of Phoenix, Arizona called me and told me of a miraculous healing that has occured for her, through praying for Father Peter's intercession before God. She said that she had a strange, large lump which appeared out of nowhere, on her head, and was going to need surgery to remove it. She prayed and prayed, and it disappeared! Praise God!
27	Mark A. Zbylut	I first came to the healing Mass about November of 1992. The Basilica seemed to have no funds at all. I wanted to support the Church and decided to become an "Audio Missionary." I had spent 8 years in the Army as a Signal officer and wanted to use my gift for technology for Our Lady. Not being able to stay employed in Pro audio due do the economy, I made audio support for evangelism my avocation under the name Revelation Audio. About 02/93 I began bringing my own microphones, cables, mixer, stands and such to support the volunteer choir that attended the healing services. I did this for about 3 years. I regret that one day the pianist, who came from Grand Rapids, MI invited an electric guitarist to play with her; without regard for the opinions of the others from Chicago. I felt it was a Holy Mass and not a rock concert. I felt forced to leave and take my equipment being unable to reconcile. Father's love for everyone was precious and he loved serving our Lord. Hail Mary!
